No, I didn't get mine either - I called this morning and they said they were mailed out last Thursday, but apparently there have been some mail issues. They said if you don't get them by tomorrow (Thursday) to call them and they can reissue with a will call pickup.

Will see what the dozen of us want to do, but this seems great. Can even park in the deck and bring supplies without too much hassle.

There is a grass lot that is between 39th and 40th that opens up 4 hours before kick off and is first come first serve. i will say it has been that way every game and then last week they didnt start letting people park there until 2 hours before kickoff because they were parking charter busses in there.

Kaufman Mall has live music to go along with beer and food tents.

Appreciate the intel!

Any updates on the weather concerning Tropical Storm Nicole. Weather Channel is calling for sunny and 70 on Saturday but I am not sure I believe that.

Does anyone know where to pick up tickets at will call? Google not showing up anything.

The Springhill Suites has a good size sports bar. It is right beside the basketball arena and a short walk to the stadium.

It is very expensive and food sucks. Try Hair of the Dog on 49th, or if getting there a bit early, Cogans or UPizza on Colley Avenue.

Thank you. Found it after 25 minutes of searching. Northwest Box Office of stadium if anyone else was wondering.

It shows to be 2 miles away from the stadium with a 9 minute walk, but Fishin Pig (owner frequents JMU games and has a location in Waynesboro) could be a possibility. From 25th over to stadium… hmmm. I don’t know now that I look at the map. I wouldn’t do it alone or at night for sure. You have to cross Colley and then several blocks down Hampton…on second thought: bad idea

Also, if you don’t get to Norfolk often the view from the rooftop bar of Saltine is awesome. I guess it all depends on how much time you’ve got before the game, place opens at 10am and is closer to Waterside Parking deck but not a doable walk to the stadium. (Park in waterside deck and uber to stadium area??)

No. Frill. Grill. So good

Is that world record walk-running pace? Only 4:30 per mile?

Look like the Storm is expected to push through Friday overnight and the game will be 75 degrees and partly Sunny.
About the best you can get for weather on November 12th.

Of course the weather guy/gal reserves the right to change their mind 180 tomorrow

Serious questions, are there beer sales and will our phones actually work there unlike at BFS?

This. I'm going to need service.

Beer sales throughout the stadium. Cell service is great for me, but I've heard others complain.
